  • 摘要:Liver cancer is one of the leading causes of cancer deaths in Asia and Africa. It is caused by the Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in almost 90% of all cases. HCC is a malignant tumor and the most common histological type of the primary liver cancers. The detection and evaluation of viable tumor regions in HCC present an important clinical significance since it is a key step to assess response of chemoradiotherapy and tumor cell proportion in genetic tests. Recent advances in computer vision, digital pathology and microscopy imaging enable automatic histopathology image analysis for cancer diagnosis. In this paper, we present a multi-resolution deep learning model HistoCAE for viable tumor segmentation in whole-slide liver histopathology images. We propose convolutional autoencoder (CAE) based framework with a customized reconstruction loss function for image reconstruction, followed by a classification module to classify each image patch as tumor versus non-tumor. The resulting patch-based prediction results are spatially combined to generate the final segmentation result for each WSI. Additionally, the spatially organized encoded feature map derived from small image patches is used to compress the gigapixel whole-slide images. Our proposed model presents superior performance to other benchmark models with extensive experiments, suggesting its efficacy for viable tumor area segmentation with liver whole-slide images.
